Renowned Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu rocked San Francisco last Saturday along with Grammy award-winning conductor Arnie Roth at the Distant Worlds concert.
It wouldnât be Distant Worlds without the music of Final Fantasy and it wouldnât the music of Final Fantasy without Spehirothâs theme from Final Fantasy VII, One Winged Angel. There have been many performances of this number over the years â nearly all of which you can catch on YouTube â but it never hurts to have one more, so here it is for your viewing pleasure. You might say itâs over done, but really, if Uematsu digs it, why shouldnât you?
Distant Worlds: music from FINAL FANTASY is a world concert tour commemorating Final Fantasyâs 20th anniversary. The tour kicked off in Sweden December 4, 2007. Iâm not sure where the concert is heading after leaving Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco, but hereâs hoping it wasnât the last we heard of Uematsu and Roth.
Enjoy!
